To enjoy this vinyl album, first, make sure your turntable is clean and in good working condition. Gently place the record on the turntable, center it, and then lower the tonearm onto the starting groove. Adjust the volume to your preference. When you're done listening, lift the tonearm carefully and return it to its rest. Store the vinyl in its sleeve and keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid touching the playing surface of the record with your fingers to prevent scratches and dirt buildup. If the record gets dirty, use a proper vinyl cleaning brush to gently clean it in a circular motion.
